James Coffee, Banker's Hill

About a week ago, Bert and I had another free morning...

TC was helping a friend with a film project so we went out to the new James Coffee...

Royal Stone

Bert and I were off on our own during a weekend last month...

TC had a youth group event so it was off for brunch for us over in Mission Hills...

Bertrand at Mr. A's - the full post

On the last Friday of Lent, we wanted to check this place out and possibly have lunch here...

at this nondescript liquor store on Adams near Felton...

Seafood Friday - Week 7: Mr. A's

It's the last Friday of Lent...so we did it BIG!

Fucking A man, it was Mr. A's for the last Seafood Friday...

Cafe Bassam & Donut Haven

TC and I made a quick pit stop at Horton Plaza before heading uptown to this coffee shop I'd read about...

Even though it was sunny that morning, it quickly turned chilly and even the winds whipped us up a before we left...

Return to the Quince Street Bridge

From Little Italy, we took the surface streets to Bankers Hill with the El Cortez looming in the distance...

In the 60's, the El Cortez was the tallest building downtown, according to my dad. It was probably a cool sight to see when they still had their outdoor glass elevator.

Our next stop was a bridge my sis hadn't yet explored and was curious to cross...

Return to the Spruce St.Suspension Bridge

After our lunch at Project Pie, I thought it would be fun to take the three girls here since we were in the area:

Looks like someone graffitied this since the last time we visited back in the Fall...such a shame that people feel the need to vandalize public property...

Bankers Hill Bar and Restaurant

Earlier this week, Bert and I had an extremely RARE "date night" on a weekday.

TC was away at 6th grade camp and we wanted to try something different...
